'At home with Chloe Sevigny' style editorials have become a bit of a genre in their own right. There was the Apartamento feature that painted an image of cottagey serenity in the heart of New York as she sat at her wide kitchen table with a Chinese tea set and bedded down under a duvet and a cover of streaming sunlight. There was the House and Garden set, a glossier affair paying attention to the clashing wallpapers and flowering garden. There also was the candid Tim Barber photographs with Chloe looking at her records and squatting on the sofa in a ragged t-shirt. On the one hand this concept feels a bit old hat, and I wouldn't mind well, 'a change of scenery', but it's also kind of cool that a bit of a series is developing with different approaches, stylists, photographers (and Chloe's varying haircuts) dictating different results.

This latest editorial comes from Twin Magazine, aptly titled 'Kick Ass' with styling by Michelle Cameron who managed to source a great double screen-printed jumper that marries together the Nike and Chloe logos to proclaim 'Chloe America's No 1'. Amen to that.

I live in L.A., and I saw her at this popular vintage store on Melrose st. I was trying to be low key about taking a picture of her without being noticed but it was pretty obvious, I was sweating so hard from being nervous haha

Ever read something on this blog that touched you, made you guffaw, or that you passed onto a friend because you thought they might like it? If so, would you like to buy me a coffee to enjoy whilst I write?
